If the impurities in the boiler feedwater are not dealt with properly, carryover of boiler water into the steam system can occur. This may lead to problems elsewhere in the steam system, such as:
In the operation of gas-fired steam/hot water boiler, it need continuous water supply to ensure the water volume in the drum. Once water shortage occurs, it will cause the boiler dry burning problem, which will further result in the boiler failure and other problems.
If the boiler gives overpressure indicator which affects boiler's safe operation, depressurization measures should be taken. However, please pay attention that depressurization can not be too fast. After the overpressure problem of steam boiler is solved, we should check the internal and external parts of boiler to ensure that everything is going well.
Not inspecting it often enough can lead to minor issues being missed, which can lead to major issues later and possibly injury.
Not checking a boiler system could have catastrophic results in the form of a boiler explosion. Fuel may explode due to unfound problems. The high temperatures generated by the boiler can also cause problems if the water level drops too low and the trip switch fails.
Regular inspections can identify and correct faults in the safety systems that are designed to prevent accidents.
When it comes to regular maintenance, the cost of the inspections and repairs will be dramatically lower than the loss of time and profit from a broken boiler that requires replacing. Don’t let maintenance fall by the wayside. Schedule it at even intervals throughout the year.
The combustion air preheater is definitely one of heat exchanger applications. Based on Figure 1 below, flue gas simply leaves steam boiler and passes via air preheater. The combustion air is passed through this equipment too to increase its temperature before being combined with boiler fuel.
Because the temperature of combustion air is lower than the temperature of flue gas, combustion air receive heat transfer from flue gas through combustion air preheater in the process of convection heat transfer. The heat transfer make temperature of flue gas lower and consequently minimizes its heat loss and also decreases the air temperature to stack.
(Question details) Specific performance:The temperature difference between the inlet oil and the outlet oil temperature of the boiler exceeds the given value.Answer：Cause of failure:(1) The oil supply of the heat oil circulating pump is insufficient.(2) The boiler operates overload.(3) Thermal oil metamorphism.(4) The boiler does not match the heating equipment.(5) Bad insulation effect.(6) There is gas or steam in the thermal oil. Troubleshooting:(1) Remove the faults of oil pump and pipeline.(2) Operate at normal load.(3) Change new oil.(4) Choose proper boiler.(5) Check the insulation layer and repair the loopholes.(6) Remove air or steam. ZOZEN pays much attention to boiler furnace insulation also, the inside is made of high quality insulation material, external use of stainless steel plate, which can maximumly reduce heat loss and improve the operating environment.
